This is just so beautiful! The cover, the colours, the materials (I bet it's just lovely to touch!), and the calligraphy work so well together, and it all fits the poem perfectly! It looks like picking it up will make you step into another world.

It is lovely to touch! I picked this one up a few days ago and paged through it again. I've been thinking about re-doing it now that my work is better than back then - it's four years old now! I have a few new ideas of things I'd like to do to make it more of an experience.

(And because of your book I got to know this awesome poem, so thanks for that, too! :'D

Your work is very impressive and inspiring.
Oh..and also Sylvia's poetry, which I love.

This is simply lovely, although I wish there was a better view of the interior calligraphy. I think I like that even more than the cover.

Thanks. But it means when I write normally (i.e, not quite so neatly), no one can read it *laugh*.

You're books are all amazing! Thank you for posting the link for that tutorial. I'm interested in making books (mine are wooden, and woodburned) but I think I will try my hand at handbound books. I have a question, but I think I will send you a message.
